Unable to create a wallet after installation.
Gets the following error after entering passphrase
Cannot acquire directory lock on "path-to-appdata/wallet.db". Another process is using the Badger database.: Permission denied
Force quitting the app did not help.
Granting storage permission to the app from settings did not help either

Version: mainnet 2019-01-26
Android Version: 6.0
Phone Model: Infinix Note 2 LTE

This error is occurring because badger uses unix Flock system call to obtain advisory lock on database file and it fails on android devices without support for this call. I have opened this issue here
